Abbot Group's activities are centred around its operating subsidiary, KCA DEUTAG, an international drilling, well engineering and facilities engineering contractor.
On 1 October 2001, the Abbot Group acquired DEUTAG and merged it with KCA Drilling. As a result of this acquisition KCA DEUTAG has the ability to offer a full range of production drilling services, both onshore and offshore, on a global basis, together with engineering, rig design and construction services - a package that we believe is virtually unique in the oil drilling contracting industry.
